The Rise of the European Emperor

Chapter 1030: Going South to Rome

However, when making specific arrangements, Marin discovered a very serious problem-these military officers seem to be insufficiently brainwashed...

It's no wonder that when Marin created the crash course for young officers, he hadn't fully cooperated with the brainwashing expert Bishop Taylor to help him train brainwashing priests similar to political commissars. Therefore, in the military academy on Texel, there are no brainwashing priests who are responsible for political propaganda. And because Marin almost forgot about the military academy in this remote area, they were not equipped with propaganda priests. Therefore, the "ideological education" of these military students is very insufficient, and there is no fanatical worship of Marin. Unlike those elementary school graduates, because they were brainwashed every day, they were excited when they saw Marin, and even burst into tears.

Looking at the 200 calm military cadets in front of him, Marin suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. Therefore, he selected two political propaganda priests from the army who were taught by Bishop Taylor with the strongest ability to deceive, and joined the military officer training group, responsible for "reasoning" to these military officers every day and promoting the greatness of Marin...

If any of these officers is impatient, then I'm sorry, even if this person is talented, he won't be able to stand out in the future. Because, unreliable...

However, these young people are only about 22 years old, still very young, and belong to the age that is easy to fool. Therefore, Marin felt that most of them should be "rescuable". If it is stubborn, then it cannot be used...

Even their instructor, Gustavo, has to participate in this kind of "political work propaganda" every day to "correct his thinking." If the thinking is not correct, the greater the ability, the more harmful it will be...

It is because of this problem of "correct thinking" that many heroes and generals throughout the ages have stumbled. Because of arrogance, Han Xin was killed by Empress Lu under the command of Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, although he was extremely capable; "I can't subdue him", deliberately killed him; Zhu Yuanzhang was even more extreme, in order to worry that his grandson Jianwen Emperor would not be able to subdue those heroes, he directly slaughtered and slaughtered the heroes...

Although Ma Lin is not as ruthless as Zhu Yuanzhang, he doesn't like subordinates who are "not correct in thinking". Although it will not be killed, it will never be reused. Why can Schwartz, Kahn, Kohler and Sauer be reused by Marin? Except that they followed Marin the earliest, they have always regarded themselves as Marin's servants. Although they were promoted to generals and ministers, these people still did not change their original intentions and regarded Marin as their master. Therefore, they can continue to be reused by Marin.

And Marin later recruited many officers from knight families, such as Frunzberg, the "father of German mercenaries" in history. Some people are even more talented than Schwartz, such as Frundsberg. However, Frundsberg's loyalty is not enough. Maximilian I waved his hand, and immediately rushed over, throwing Marin away.

It was precisely because he was heartbroken by Frundsberg that Marin paid so much attention to the issue of loyalty in the future. There are some generals in the army who are more talented than Schwartz. However, because they are born in aristocratic families, they value the family very much. They prioritize the interests of the family over Marin's interests in everything, just like those families in China. Therefore, Marin could not fully trust them. Even, it has long been planned to use those students who are still in school to replace them in the future. In this way, Marin can truly control the army. Unlike now, Marin has been worried about losing the battle. Because, when the wind blows, many people will come to vote. But when you lose a lot of battles, those who are not loyal enough will leave one after another. Only those who are brainwashed enough and loyal to fanatical will continue to follow Marin regardless of victory or defeat.

...

Of course, it's too early to say that. Because, whether you can think correctly, even if you let those outstanding Taylor students fool you, it will take a while to see the effect.

For now, Marin still needs to further examine the talents of these military students. It will take a while to see if it works or not.

Before seeing it, Marin didn't mind examining the basic skills of these people.

Therefore, on the way Marin went south to Rome, he decided to bring these 200 military students. In addition, Marin will bring 100 guards and 200 scouts to protect the safety along the way.

In this way, Marin took 500 soldiers, including 200 officers and students, with one man and two horses, and embarked on the journey south to Rome.

Whether it is Marin's guards or the scouts under Sauer's command, they are no strangers to horseback riding. The 200 military officer students are also no strangers. Because, the officers of this era are all on horseback. As a reserve officer, the officer student, although born as a civilian, must also practice riding. Although it is not up to the level of fighting on horseback like cavalry, it is no problem to ride on horseback.

In order to further examine the level of the 200 military officers, Marin ordered the 500 troops to be divided into two parts and set up camp separately - 100 guards and 200 scouts were in a group with Marin, while the 200 military officers camped independently, not with the horses. Lin them together. Moreover, the eight veteran captains were not allowed to give them pointers.

The reason for this is that Marin wants to cultivate the ability of these officers and students to camp and deploy defenses during the march. In the future, they may lead troops to battle independently. Camping and defending against enemy attacks are the most basic abilities. And this time on the way south to Rome, it is a good opportunity to exercise.

Therefore, Marin asked these 200 officers and students to camp independently and meet Marin's main camp 500 meters away. Not only that, Marin will also send scouts to harass them in the middle of the night. If you can spot the harassment of scouts, praise them. If there is no response, let those 8 veteran captains scold them...

...

Sure enough, these young military cadets were still too immature. In the middle of the night on the first day, the scouts sent by Marin easily covered the mouths of the night guards who were in charge of guarding the camp gate... Of course, they didn't wipe their necks, because they were their own people after all...

Then, because of the loopholes in the camp, the scouts sneaked into the camp... If there is a real war, it will be miserable, maybe there will be a "beheading operation" or something...

Along the way, this group of young cadets was played around by Sauer's experienced scouts, and they almost didn't cry. At this time, they realized that the things they learned in school were only the most basic, and there were many things that they had to rely on to accumulate experience and lessons...

Fortunately, there is no harm in being hit by this group of scouting veterans. At least, they can put away their pride and complacency. In future wars, we can also be more cautious.

In fact, these officers and students who have been hit hard don't know-the 200 old scouts brought by Marin, with their abilities, most of the European armies at this time will suffer when they face them...lose to them , in fact, there is nothing to be ashamed of...

However, Marin will definitely not tell the truth to these officers. Otherwise, it won't be effective against them.

In this way, Marin and his team, while marching, let those old scouts attack those immature officers and students. Along the way, Marin actually made fun of it, didn't feel the boringness of the journey at all, and even participated in the night attack test in person...

And as they walked, those immature military officers grew up more and more. In the later stage, they were able to resist the infiltration of most of the old scouts. Moreover, they are also accustomed to the use of dark whistle, which greatly improves the early warning ability in the middle of the night.

After these officers and students basically got used to the harassment methods of the old scouts, everyone suddenly realized——Oh, the city of Rome is here...
